On his Fox News show Friday night, Carlson described the material included in Ashley Biden’s diary as “sick” and “horrifying,” and questioned whether it constituted child abuse deserving of a police visit.
After we discovered that Aimee Harris is being probed over Ashley Biden’s journal, which exposes her sex addiction and showers she had with her president father, he stated the president was basically utilizing the Feds as his secret police force.
Although Harris has not been charged or arrested, the Fox News host has questioned why she is being investigated for an incident that is not a federal crime.
Ashley Biden had left the diary in a bed at a halfway house in Florida after treatment for her compulsive sexual impulses.
Ashley’s suggestion that showering with her father, then-Senator Joe Biden, as a young girl may have led to her sex addiction is among the diary’s explosive contents.
Carlson also questioned why liberal media outlets had largely ignored the diary story, much like they had ignored the Hunter Biden laptop scandal ahead of the 2020 election, only to later admit the sordid contents of the president’s son’s hard drive were true.
Ashley Biden credits her sexual compulsions to her father taking showers with her, according to Carlson, who brought DailyMail.com reporter Josh Boswell on his show to examine the story.
‘If you are the parent of daughters, ask yourself if there is any legitimate justification for that behavior,’ the host continued.
Carlson noted that, while Ashley Biden did not specify her age at the time of the showers, she was old enough to recall them.
‘By the way, tiny kids don’t take showers; they take baths,’ he continues.
‘If that isn’t child molestation, it is surely close enough to trigger a police visit,’ Carlson said of the showers.
According to Carlson, the FBI is more interested in raiding the homes of journalists who have exposed these charges than in examining the allegations themselves.
Carlson reminded viewers of his Friday night broadcast that federal officials raided the home of Project Veritas activist and creator James O’Keefe in November 2021.
Right-wing activist group Project Veritas is notorious for its sting recordings featuring celebrities, journalists, Democratic lawmakers, and union executives.
The FBI was on the lookout for a copy of Ashley Biden’s diary, which they claimed had been’stolen.’
‘In what world is the alleged theft of a diary being probed by the FBI?’ Carlson said, echoing O’Keefe’s statements from the time of the raids. ‘What were they thinking?’
‘The answer lies in what’s in the diary,’ the host responds to his own question. We now know what’s on the calendar.’
‘Project Veritas is not engaged in journalism within any traditional or accepted sense of that word,’ the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York claimed in court filings at the time of the raid.
‘Its’reporting,’ according to the prosecution, consists virtually solely of disseminating non-consensual, secret recordings made using illegal, unethical, and/or dishonest ways.’
While claiming that Project Veritas was guilty of “disgraceful deceptions” at the time of the raids, the American Civil Liberties Union added in a statement that “the precedent set in this case might have major ramifications for press freedom.”
Biden’s behavior around young women has been the subject of numerous claims, according to the Fox News anchor.
The FBI is investigating the Florida lady who discovered Ashley Biden’s private diary, not for stealing it, but for selling it, DailyMail.com exclusively learned earlier this week.
After a period in rehab, the president’s daughter, now 41, lived in a Palm Beach house frequented by recovering addicts for a short time before returning to Philadelphia in June 2020 and leaving her diary there.
a mother of two children who is single Aimee Harris, 39, who had recently completed recovery, moved in a few weeks later and discovered it under the mattress.
Harris allegedly displayed the diary at a Republican fundraiser and sold it to Project Veritas for $40,000.
The president’s daughter writes about being ‘hypersexualized [at] an early age,’ chronic drug misuse, extramarital affairs, how her finances were ‘down to the wire,’ and how she made Joe cry with fear over her ahead of a Democratic primary debate.
Ashley’s writings also suggest she was using drugs while assisting her father’s presidential campaign in 2019.
It was published less than two weeks before the 2020 election on a right-wing news site, but drew little notice at the time.
In November 2021, the New York Times first reported on a Justice Department investigation into the journal, and the diary’s authenticity was established.
The New York Times, on the other hand, failed to mention that its pages featured disturbing information that the president’s own daughter believes his reported bathing with her may have contributed to her sex addiction.
According to a November piece in the New York Times, a Biden family spokesman said that Ashley’s journal and other belongings were stolen in an alleged burglary.
Harris, though, is not being investigated for theft, according to a person close to the investigation.
‘The government are no longer claiming that finding the journal was criminal,’ the person said. ‘They’re also not accusing Aimee of stealing anything.’
‘However, selling another person’s property could be considered a crime.’ The fact that Ashley is the president’s daughter raises the stakes even higher.’
Harris allegedly sold the diaries to Project Veritas with the help of a buddy, convicted money launderer Robert Kurlander.
Kurlander declined to comment when approached at his Jupiter home.
Ashley Biden is Biden’s youngest and only child from his marriage to First Lady Jill Biden. When she was in her late 30s, she had dates written in her journal from January 25 to September 18, 2019.
Ashley wrote about her sex addiction the day before her Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in a blog on January 30.
‘I’ve always had a thing for boys,’ she wrote. ‘At a young age, I was hypersexualized… I recall being sexualized by [a family member], having intercourse with pals at a young age, and showering with my father (probably not acceptable).’
Despite the potential that Joe was improper with her as a youngster, Ashley looked to be appreciative to her parents at other times.
‘I had a relapse. On March 16, she wrote, ‘F***ing again.’ ‘This time, the difference was that I notified Elizabeth, Mom, and Dad this morning.’ Mom and Dad are concerned, yet they are wonderfully supportive. I am extremely fortunate to have them on my side.’
Her continued drug consumption, however, left her on the verge of financial disaster and her father in tears four months later.
In a July 27 note, she wrote, ‘My father cried over the phone, saying he has the debate in a week + ‘now has to worry about you.’
‘And he sobbed.’ Perhaps he knows what he’s doing and it’s working, but my guilt is often overwhelming.’
She went on to say that her finances were ‘down to the wire,’ and she put ‘Dad – $, control’ on a list labeled ‘Resentful.’ She wrote ‘Dad – harming self, lying’ on a second list headed ‘Hurt.’
Ashley’s marriage was also having severe issues.
She was having affairs with men other than her husband, surgeon Howard Krein, now 55, according to her diary entries.
‘Here I am, married to another man, chatting about another man! In February of this year, she wrote, ‘It all feels odd.’
‘I’ve been hanging out with a new guy…’ It’s been nice to be able to kiss someone else.’
‘Why am I feeling this way and do I need more time to try and figure it out? Does this mean that I am still into my husband?’
Other entries suggest she may have been campaigning for Joe while still using drugs.
On August 1, 2019 Ashley wrote: ‘It’s time to get back home + work on the campaign. Headquarters in Philadelphia – spent good portion of that time on the road.
The work is hard. Nothing compares to that rush/high/excitement of getting (sic). I am searching for ways to escape.’
However, she claimed two weeks later claiming she had only been high for five days.
‘I’m anxious, and I’m not sure where it comes from…’ Perhaps it’s the ‘lack’ of substances — it’s been 5 days. ‘It’s the longest I’ve been in a long time,’ she wrote.
‘I guess the longest stretch of sobriety has been 10 days since basically March,’ she noted later, while she promised herself that she would never use drugs again after her stay at the Caron recovery center in Pennsylvania that month.
‘We refuse to engage with a query like this, which simply does not merit a response,’ a spokeswoman for Asley Biden told DailyMail.com when contacted for comment.
Drug arrests and controversies are nothing new for the president’s daughter.
When she was an 18-year-old student at Tulane University in New Orleans, she was arrested for marijuana possession in 1999.
The local district attorney declined to prosecute her after she was freed on a $1,000 bond.
Two years later, the president’s daughter was jailed in Howard County, Maryland, for underage drinking. After failing to appear for a hearing on the matter, she was issued a bench warrant.
Ashley eventually pleaded guilty and received a $125 fine.
According to court records, she was evicted from her New Orleans house in 2001.
She was detained for the third time in August 2002, when she was accused of blocking authorities attempting to break up a bar fight in Chicago.
After one of the assailants tossed a bottle at the cops, she allegedly ‘blocked the officer’s route and made intimidating words.’
An unidentified source approached the New York Post in March 2009 with a video purporting to show Ashley snorting cocaine at a party in Delaware that month. Although the paper rejected to buy the footage, it did publish a piece about it.
According to the publication, a woman who resembled Ashley inhaled lines of white powder on a desk via a red straw and then shouted ‘Shut the f*** up’ to others in the room in the footage.
Lawyers promoting the film for their client stated that ‘At one point she pretty much complains that the line isn’t big enough,’ and that ‘She talks about her father,’ according to the Post, and that they had been promised $250,000 for the clip.
DailyMail.com has not independently confirmed or obtained the footage. Shortly after the allegations surfaced, the seller’s lawyer apparently dropped his client.
Aimee Harris, like Ashley, struggled with addiction and was in financial distress in 2019.
According to Palm Beach County court documents, she had been unable to pay her $900 rent in a low-income residence in Lake Worth, Florida. Credit card firms had tracked her down in West Virginia, hounding her for overdue invoices.
She left an allegedly abusive relationship with Wrigley’s gum heir William DeGray III in 2014, accusing him of striking her, spitting at her, and smashing her phone against a wall, according to court documents.
Harris later married Chris Bove, the son of a Palm Beach socialite and a large Rhode Island Chevrolet dealer, and they had two children. However, that relationship terminated in court as well.
In 2018, Bove, 35, filed an emergency application for custody of her 6-year-old daughter Grace and 5-year-old son Dylan, saying Harris had stopped taking her bipolar medication.
He claimed she threatened to drown the kids in the adjacent Intracoastal Waterway and ‘beat their heads against a wall,’ as well as throwing televisions at him and punching holes in walls.
The assertions were met with skepticism by a Palm Beach County judge, who ordered a joint parenting schedule that gave each parent two days on and two days off.
According to a person close to the situation, Harris entered herself into an inpatient rehab center in Delray Beach, Florida, in 2020, after trading charges of drug usage.
When asked for comment, Bove stated, “The case file speaks for itself.”
A former patient permitted Harris to reside in a house in Lake Worth, not far from the rehab center, for a few weeks after her release in July of that year — the same property Ashley had abandoned one month before.
She discovered the diary, as well as a duffel bag full of soiled clothes, under the mattress.
Harris received the book containing surprising, embarrassing, and sensitive facts about the would-be president’s daughter at a time when her bid to keep custody of her own children was in risk.
Harris’s then-attorney John Schutz filed a lien on her for unpaid bills in August 2020, after Bove accused her of breaking their parenting plan for weeks at a time.
The distraught woman turned to her acquaintance Robert Kurlander, 58, who had been convicted of cocaine money laundering in the 1990s.
According to the insider, the two devised a scheme to sell the paper to Republican operatives looking for an advantage in the next presidential election in November.
Kurlander, who owns a $1.2 million home in Jupiter, a rich West Palm Beach neighborhood, had himself and Harris invited to a Trump campaign fundraiser a few miles from his home in September 2020.
Local businesswoman Elizabeth Fago, who had recently been nominated by Trump to serve on the National Cancer Advisory Board, sponsored the event.
According to the source, the diary was passed around among the fundraiser’s guests, with someone pointing out the more scandalous portions.
According to a source close to the investigation, the FBI interviewed Fago, 71.
Fago’s daughter called Project Veritas through their tip line three days before the event, according to the Times.
According to the New York Times, Harris and Kurlander travelled to New York with the diaries and met with Veritas agents at a hotel on Manhattan’s West Side.
Veritas paid $40,000 for the rights to publish the diaries and wired $20,000 to Harris and Kurlander.
But the group’s creator, James O’Keefe, decided not to publish it, claiming in an internal email that it would be “labeled as a cheap hit,” and then sought unsuccessfully to use it as leverage for an interview with Joe Biden.
Instead, a Veritas staffer leaked a copy of the journal to National File, a right-wing news site, which published extracts on October 24, 2020, just days before the election. The entire thing was later uploaded to the site.
The Bidens reported the diary and other possessions as stolen, which prompted an investigation by the Justice Department.
It was a year later that federal authorities raided O’Keefe’s and another Project Veritas activist’s houses.
Prosecutors said the group was complicit in the theft of Ashley’s items in court files.
Veritas has denied any misconduct, claiming to be merely a journalism outlet doing its job.
According to a source close to the investigation, the Department of Justice is now investigating exploring charges against Harris for selling the journal rather than stealing it.
‘Aimee didn’t get to do anything with the money she received in the end,’ the insider claimed.
‘She ended up paying her lawyers and she’s still fighting for her kids. It’s not like she bought something ostentatious with the money.
‘If someone tried to queer the election in favor of Trump, that’s not really Aimee’s doing. She had no idea the effect this thing would have.
‘She’s a simple, straight-forward soul who’s been manipulated by others in an attempt to take down the president of the United States.
‘She’s been homeless, moving from place to place throughout Palm Beach County. In the end, she’s been caught in something much bigger than her.’
On May 2, Fronstin dropped Harris as a customer.
Sanford Talkin, a New York City criminal defense lawyer who defended union president James W. Cahill when he was charged for racketeering, fraud, and bribery in October 2020, has taken his place.
